I got an early christmas present from one of my best friends this week and she really out did herself. She gave me a present that crosses over 2 of my favourite things, makeup and superheroes. Kylie Cosmetics recently brought of a collection in collaboration with Batman!! Yes that's right Batman a.k.a my favourite DC Comics superhero. Though I am a Marvel girl through and through I have always adored the Batman comic books. The stories are brilliant and the villains are some of the best out there (especially Riddler and Joker). So of course you can understand how excited I was to play with this palette so let's chat all about the Kylie Cosmetics Batman Collection pressed Powder Palette , £46.00.
This palette is inspired by the original Batman comics and I can honestly say Kylie has nailed everything about this palette from the names, colour story and packaging. It is easily my favourite palette she has never released. When you open the palette it is like reading a book and on the left side of the palette you see clips from old comics and on the right you have the stunning shades and a mirror covered by a Batman sticker. Personally I'm keeping the sticker on there for now because it looks so cool! Since the outer packaging looks so epic this is a palette I'll easily have on my display table because this needs to be seen.
Now onto the shades themselves, as expected each shade has a batman theme and the colour stories is clearly inspired by the early comic books with the blues, greys and pop of yellow. I had a play around with this palette today and I was so impressed with how pigmented the shades are! We all know when I reviewed the Stass palette I was not a fan, the shades were really powdery and all blended into one shade so not a hit. But this one is so much better! The shades are so much more pigmented, vibrant and blend like a dream. I have already started filming looks using this palette because I have so many ideas. If this is the eyeshadow formula that Kylie will be using from now on then her betters will be ones to look out for.
Overall based on first impressions I adore this palette from the colour story, now well the shades blend just the overall idea of the collection. As far as I'm aware this palette is somewhat limited edition so I've linked it above to grab it while you can. If you want to see any tutorials using this palette or specific colours let me know!.
